That is probably about as good a Texas team as there has been in about 40 years.

Everybody likes to play at home, and we're no exception, ... I guarantee you we are anxious to play at home one time this year and see what it looks and feels like.

That (last year's troubles) has nothing to do with this team,

Its a setback, but they have a good, balanced attack, ... It was a mismatch; I don't think there was any doubt about it. We weren't physically in a position (to win).

Texas players naturally get fired up to play other Texas players. The Boises, the Fresnos, Hawaii - they didn't even know where Texas is.

As the child matures, his eyes change and he may not realize he has a deficit.

Everybody comes here just like everybody goes to Florida. People go where the players are.

Vince is everything you look for in a quarterback. We're looking forward to playing Texas. Were they to play the national championship game today, (Texas would) be in it. The biggest thing we're looking for is how much we can improve this week. That will be the key to this football team. We are committed through the whole season.

We were playing most of our games against teams east of the Mississippi River. We needed to go our own way and play Western teams. We were the new kid on the block as far as the service academies were concerned. We needed to gain our own identity.

We were ready. We kicked off well and covered the kickoffs extremely well. We got them behind the 24-yard line every time on kickoffs. We were ready, but their talent took off.
